Most businesses have provided training and education for leaders and managers on the D&I agenda, they've raised awareness of the increased creativity and problem-solving capacity of diverse teams, they've underlined that the skills gaps affecting the industry could be filled (at least partially) by widening the talent pool.
I believe we need to move past the awareness phase and take an increased focus on the 'how' of the agenda. In other words: we've set our goals, we're committed to the task - how are we actually going to make it happen?
It is leaders that set the strategy and the culture, which managers then carry on a day-to-day basis. Leadership is accountable for the cultural direction of a business and for its progress with diversity and inclusion.
